Homeworks

All written homeworks are not formally required but we strongly encourage you to complete them. Completing them awards extra credit (2.5% each of the 30% total allocated for midterms, or 0.75% of your final grade each) towards the midterms. The homework due dates are soft but we ask that you do not submit them too far past the deadline.
